COLLABORATION

Curated by JAMES MORRISON

Friday 6–Sunday 8 September


Dubbed a 'genius' by Ray Brown and 'one of the best' by Dizzy Gillespie, James Morrison is a legendary figure in Australian jazz. He has recorded with the London Symphony Orchestra, rock legends INXS and the European Brass Ensemble; performed at the Royal Albert Hall for the BBC Proms; written the opening fanfare for the Olympic Games; played for Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II and for US Presidents Bush, Clinton and Obama. He frequents the world's most famous jazz clubs (Birdland, The Blue Note and Village Vanguard in New York; the New Morning in Paris; Ronnie Scott's in London) and has played with many of the greats, including Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Quincy Jones, Ray Charles, B.B. King and Wynton Marsalis.

Building on his immensely popular 'What Is Jazz?' festival at UKARIA in September 2022, James Morrison's second weekend for us will feature three exceptional guest artists with the James Morrison Quartet in three concerts celebrating the art of collaboration.

Tickets, artist line up and full program available in Autumn 2024.
